The art and musings of a disillusioned idealist.

Getting back into those cyberpunk colors

I started the webcomic Fisheye Placebo many years ago and had to stop due to hand pain. For the last few years I've been working with an amazing team of 3D artists to help me continue my comic by using 3D models as bases to quickly paint over. As we get closer to finishing preparing all the models needed for the comic, I've been excitedly testing them out. During my hiatus I did a few illustrations here and there, usually to do with nature and has some pastel colors. It's really nice to jump back into this dystopian cyberpunk world of neon lights and hidden secrets. Below are some of my test paint overs to get back into the flow of creating the Fisheye Placebo world.

The talented Sozo Maika modeled all the characters that I used to paint over. And Aversionofreality modeled all the clothes, rigged the characters, taught me how to use Blender and countless other things. With the current ease of drawing these characters, I can't believe how I got by drawing all the previous chapters by hand.... and no wonder my hand became damaged from over working back then.... but no more! 2018 will be a new beginning :)
